OMG!!! These are so cute! I saw mini apple pies somewhere else, too, but I love how yours looks like a classic apple pie. It looks bigger in the first and last photos! YUM! Great process photos. They are absolutely lovely.

I love apple pie any and everything. My plan is to try these soon to make sure they come out right. If so, they will be added to our Thanksgiving menu. In addition, I may make an extra batch or two for the tent-city homeless community near my university. Do you make and then donate some of your wonderful foods to the homeless? It is such a rewarding feeling.

I’m sure they will come out right. What a wonderful human act – the donating. Make loads of pictures, I’d love to see them! I’ve never done anything like that, but have to admit that I’ve had it on my mind for some time. 🙂 Petra

made these the other day, i was visiting my lil sister at college and her kitchen didn’t have a pie tin (or a veg peeler, or a cutting board, or a rolling pin, but at least i’d had the sense to bring my own knives) so i made these in a muffin tin instead. fabulous, they got rave reviews. i added some cinnamon to the pie crust. okay, a lot of cinnamon. one comment though, your recipe says 8 med apples but the picture shows only 6. i wasn’t sure which so i go ahead with the 8 and ended up with WAY WAY too much filling. seems just the 6 would have been the perfect amount. maybe my apples were bigger than medium.

Made these mini pies and they tasted AMAZING! I had a quick question for you, when you have diced all your apples and you’ve added all the dry measurements and the melted butter and lemon, it looked like the mixture broke. The apples were almost spotted looking with the cinnamon mixture covering them. I dumped the first batch and remade it and it came out the same way. Is there a special way to add these ingredients so it does not break? Anyway, even with that happening to me the taste was so good and my whole family just loved them. It is 4 degrees outside this evening in chilly Chicago, and my family was pleasantly surprised to smell that wonderful smell coming from the kitchen when they got home. That’s how memories are made! Thank you so much for this recipe and I just wanted to say keep up the good work – your blog is GREAT!

Hi Jeannie! Glad you liked the recipe. I think I didn’t mind much what the apples looked like before baking. During the baking it will all melt anyway and all you get are soft apple chunks in delish sauce. Enjoy! 🙂 Petra

I am really glad you like these mini apple pies. The truth is I’ve never frozen my pies before. But I’ve done a little research and found out that people across the world freeze their pies before baking or after baking. In both cases it’s good to wrap the pies in plastic wrap and tin foil before putting them in the freezer.

But if I had to chose between those two possibilities, I’d freeze them before baking and then let them thaw in the refrigerator and bake them when needed.

I just wanted to let you know, easiest flakiest pie crust and the filling is awesome!! I brushed the tops with butter, then sprinkled a little flour and then brushed with a little milk… Great recipe! Thank you!

I made these today…… Correction I attempted to make them! They turned out beautiful looking, but could not get them out of muffin pan. I put plenty of oil in and they still stuck. They do however taste wonderful, but very disappointed I will not be able to serve at my party tomorrow!!!! Any suggestions for the next attempt?

Oh, it has probably something to do with your baking dish surface, they are all different. Next time try oiling the pan and then dusting it with flour. And when baked, loosen the edges with a thin sharp knife before removing the pies. I guess that should help.

Hello Petra (:
I want to make these for my family to amaze them on thanksgiving (:
Is there a possible way i can make these without a electric mixer?
& also is there a possible way i can make the pies with the diamond pattern on top?

Hi ZY,
You are just so very adorable and the things you’ve made with sticks and string are marvelous. I have been crocheting Toukou’s stuff and I think I will start making yours instead, well, too! The t-hats and croc items are terrific! So intense looking! Well, if I only had an apple…….it’s off to the store!
God bless and Merry Christmas and oh those lit pies!
Luv ya!
Lin

I made these pies tonight and they were absolutely amazing! My only problem was that the top crust didn’t stick to the bottom crust, any suggestions for me for next time? I’d really love to use this recipe again, thanks in advance!

Hi! This looks amazing! I’m gna try makin them this week. But just a few short questions. Can I keep the baked apple pies overnight(& is there a recommended shelf life? 🙂 ) ? Also, I want to bring to school the next day, shld I toast them or bake (at what temp/ mins) to make them taste better the next day? 🙂
Hope to hear from you soon! 🙂 can’t wait to try out your recipe! 🙂

Wow, way too many things I want to make on your blog. Everything looks amazing. And like you I am a massive cinnamon freak. In particular apple and cinnamon together… no need to apologise for the comment 🙂 These look delicious. Trying them out tomorrow. Can’t wait. Thanks for sharing all these yummy looking recipes. My tummy is getting bigger just looking at them.

You will find these in smooth polished and some that have a faceted cut and come in a range of semi-precious stones like Rose Quartz, Amazonite, Tigers Eye,
Turquoise, Onyx and many more. However, the bright red coloring of the characters
often clash against the deep Jade coloring making it hard to decipher
the proper letters. Because it is a high quality by-product in the handmade natural soap making process, many mass commercial handmade natural soap manufacturers often extract the glycerine and sell it as a by-product to be used in higher priced products like lotions and skin creams.
